Sligo Rovers, Recent FormA 0-0 draw and a point gained against Derry City in their previous meeting will have been considered a fairly decent result for Sligo Rovers last time out. Their share of possession in that meeting was 49%, while racking up 7 shots along the way, 2 of which were on target, in contrast to Derry City, who had 12 shots on goal with 3 on target.
Having scored 4 goals and conceded 9 in their last 6 games, they will need to improve at both ends if they are to pick up more points from here on. They have failed to score in 4 of their last 6 games.
They've drawn their last 2 league games at The Showgrounds, but their search for a home win in the league extends even further having gone 3 consecutive games without grabbing all 3 points.
Shelbourne, Recent FormShelbourne have set themselves up nicely for this match by securing a 2-1 home win against Shamrock Rovers in their previous league match. They came away from that fixture with a 31% share of the possession and clocked up 8 attempts on goal with 6 on target, in comparison to Shamrock Rovers, who managed 16 attempts on goal, 6 of which were on target.
Manager Damien Duff will be reasonably pleased with his team's performances in front of goal, having scored 11 goals in their last 6 games, but will want to tighten up his defence with 6 goals conceded in the same period. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games.
They have been performing well recently, both home and away, and remain unbeaten in their last 6 games.
On an individual basis, Seán Boyd will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 4 goals in Shelbourne's last 6 league games.
Sligo Rovers suffered the disappointment of a 0-1 defeat at the hands of Shelbourne the last time they met in the league.
In each of their last 5 games away from home in the league to Sligo, The Shels have scored at least 1 goal and will be looking to extend that run. During the last 2 times these two teams have met in the league at The Showgrounds, Sligo have been unable to break through the visitor's defence and find the back of the net.
Sligo has a poor track record in the league when they host Shelbourne, losing in their last 2 home games.
There is only really one injury concern for the Sligo manager John Russell ahead of this clash, with John Mahon (Achilles tendon) missing out, which gives Russell a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
There is only really one injury concern for the Shelbourne manager Damien Duff ahead of this clash, with Shane Griffin (Leg) missing out, which gives Duff a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
